This document discusses several ways to integrate library resources into Blackboard courses. It describes LibGuides which are research guides created by librarians that can be linked within Blackboard. Subject librarians can create LibGuides tailored for specific courses and are available for research assistance. Widgets like the Library Tips widget and chat widget are pre-built components that can be added. Quick guides and tips for accessing resources and conducting research can also be linked. Permanent links can be generated for sources in library databases and instructions are provided for linking databases within Blackboard. A future PowerLink feature will allow direct access to select databases from within Blackboard. The library contact is available for any additional questions or resource needs.
NISO Two Day Virtual Conference:
Using the Web as an E-Content Distribution Platform:
Challenges and Opportunities
Oct 21-22, 2014
John Mark Ockerbloom, Digital Library Architect and Planner, University of Pennsylvania
This presentation was provided by Todd Digby and Robert Phillips of the University of Florida during the NISO Virtual Conference held on Feb 15, 2017, entitled Institutional Repositories: Ensuring Yours is Populated, Useful and Thriving.
The British Library was one of the first national libraries to create and offer linked data in 2011 as part of its wider open data strategy. Since that point the organisation has gained considerable experience of the issues involved in the development and maintenance of a sustained linked data service.
This presentation describes
- Why libraries are interested in offering linked data?
- What are some of the basic concepts involved in linked data?
- How can linked data be created from library MARC data?
It is not new to say that the scholarly communication system is sick. One way to put it is that the publishers have built a paywall around the papers written by our faculty and make us librarians pay for it.
For years, Open Access via the green and gold route have been touted as a joint solution. To this end, as academic librarians, we focused on building institutional repositories and getting open access mandates. However, recently, many prominent members of the open access community have begun to express doubts about the viability of institutional repositories as a solution given the lack of success.
Some, like Stevan Harnad self-dubbed “Open Access Archivangelist” for Green Open access, claim to have given up, while others, like Eric Van de Velde, suggest that we rethink other ways to accomplish Green Open access beyond just institutional repositories. In this webinar, we will summarise all the arguments and attempt to give a librarian’s point of view about the future of IRs.

Scientific Data Management: Caring for Your Institution and its Intellectual Wealth
Improving Integrity, Transparency, and Reproducibility Through Connection of the Scholarly Workflow
Andrew Sallans, Partnerships, Collaborations, and Funding, Center for Open Science
This conversation with Cliff Lynch was the opening segment of the February 15, 2017 program, sponsored by NISO, entitled Institutional Repositories: Ensuring Yours Is Populated, Useful and Thriving
This session will comprise a talk with a panel of speakers
looking at KBART: seven years later (since the publication
of the first set of recommendations up to today). The panel
will discuss the changes on the e-resources metadata
landscape, the benefits of KBART and the challenges of
its implementation. Today poor metadata in the electronic
resources supply chain is still a problem. The panel will
use practical examples to explain how metadata creation,
consumption and usage are marked by the constant
requirement of finding the balance between available
resources (technical and human) and end user discoverability
needs. The KBART Standing Committee sees the
implementation of KBART recommendations as a community
effort from a range of stakeholders (content providers,
knowledge bases, link resolvers and librarians).

The University of Hertfordshire (UH) implemented a new
commercial Resource Discovery Service at the same time as it
changed to the Koha Open Source Library Management System. In doing so it moved away from using Google Scholar, as its main platform, at a time when many universities are deciding to only use Google Scholar. Hear about the debate between commercial and non-commercial services and why UH made the decisions it did. After 18 months was it the right decision? What has been the impact on library services and library users?
Walk this way: Online content platform migration experiences and collaboration NASIG
In this session, a librarian and a publisher share their perspectives on content platform migrations, and the Working Group Co-chairs will describe the group’s efforts to-date and expected outcomes. Our publisher-side speaker will describe issues they must consider when their content migrates, such as providing continuous access, persistent linking, communicating with stakeholders, and working with vendors. Our librarian speaker will describe their experience and steps they take during migrations, such as receiving notifications about migrations, identifying affected e-resources, updating local systems to ensure continuous access, and communicating with their front-line staff and patrons.

Digital Trends Impacting News CompaniesReid Williams
At the Detroit Media Partnership, we do a significant amount of trend watching and future forecasting — we want our products to meet users in the future, not be chasing after them where they were.
The slides included here come from the biggest, most recent session rallying everyone from the newsroom to marketing to advertising around the digital trends that will gain steam in the coming year. Not only will they affect us—they’ll affect the business partners we support.
So, what are these trends you should be thinking about? Here’s a quick recap:
1. Wearable technology — More and more tech is making its way into our wardrobe. We’re planning for a future that has fewer screens and more feedback data.
2. Ecommerce — Used to be, people were afraid to put a credit card number into a website. Not anymore. Now people can pay with their smartphones. Is your company well positioned to transact with users across digital platforms?
3. The social web — Social media has rapidly become the way many people discover news and new businesses in their neighborhood. Brands have used these networks to broadcast, but they’re only beginning to understand how to participate effectively. Do people tune you out on social channels, or have you figured out their psychological motivations?
4. Smart devices — More and more devices are wi-fi enabled, offering amazing new potential. If your products were connected to the web would that benefit your customers?
5. The environment as technology — It isn’t just devices. Sensors are being built into everything: bridges, buildings, cars, you name it. What advantages can you imagine in making your products part of the Internet of Things?
6. Unbundling — Value is often created in the bundling together of products, but our old bundles — the newspaper, the cable channel package, the record album — are getting broken up. Is your business exposed to unbundling? What could you bundle to create new value?
7. Commoditization — The web is growing like crazy. This means the content and ads out there have more and more competition, and their value is falling. How do you stand out in the ocean that is the Internet?
8. Search — It’s the single most dominant behavior on the web and it continues to evolve. Search will likely move from giving you articles to giving you answers. Is your web presence prepared to evolve as search technology changes?
9. Context and anticipation — More and more, users expect their digital products to know where they are and the specifics of what they want, often without asking. Significant technical advances are making this a reality. How well does your product know its user?
10. Privacy and security — Edward Snowden and the NSA put this on the forefront of the public attention, and concerns over privacy and security will persist, even generating new digital products in the market. Does your product foster users’ desire for privacy or the need to keep their data secure?

LibGuides are a great tool for special librarians. They can be used for course guides, general information, or for specific informational applications.
Learning spaces continue to evolve as web tools further erase the physical walls of classrooms, libraries and other educational settings.
This presentation examines the use of LibGuides, a web 2.0 content management and information sharing system from Springshare designed specifically for libraries but being used at Passaic County Community College as a collaborative tool for courses.
This hosted service offers opportunities to create and share reusable content, tagging, widgets, embedded video, RSS, and easy integration with other tools like Delicious and Facebook.
Supplemental Handout: GALILEO and Web 2.0 Tools InfoBuffy Hamilton
Supplemental handout for Day 2 of Information Literacy for those who need visual screenshots and brief info bullets on Web 2.0 sources of authoritative information. This was not used in the presentation but loaded on the course SharePoint site to supplement "show/tell/play" course activities and primary PowerPoint that is available in my SlideSpace here.
LibGuides are generally used for course guides, but can also be a very effective tool in communicating information with faculty. This presentation details some ways to use LibGuides to connect with faculty.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
